Phishing emails and texts are a favourite tactic of fraudsters and are becoming increasingly convincing. YouTube has warned people of a fresh campaign to dupe users into clicking potentially dangerous links.

"We're seeing reports of a phishing attempt showing no-reply@youtube.com as the sender," it tweeted.Advertisement

Phishing emails and texts are a favourite tactic of fraudsters and are becoming increasingly convincing. They draw you in by looking remarkably legitimate, using things like recognisable branding, and then seek to steal personal information like passwords and payment details. They are notably common at times when you might expect a raft of certain messages - such as shopping deals from retailers around Black Friday,An important thing to look out for a lot of the time is the domain name of the sender's email address - they are often quite close but with something slightly off.If you're at all unsure, it's good practice to go to the website directly, rather than click on any links in the email.
